Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Buckinghamshire. In the shadow of the 11th century pre-conquest Parish Church of St. Nicholas this well was mentioned in 1538 in a gift of the parsonage to Christ Church, Oxford. Recently 'restored' the well stands on the verge of Church Lane and now comprises a large rectangular stone bath filled with water channelled from a spring further up the road.
